Climate, Energy, Enterprise/Industry, Environment, ICT, Innovation, Internal Market, Health, Research
Individual consumers and professional users, the lighting industry, the building and construction sector, architects, lighting designers, electrical installer, municipalities, public authorities, civil society communities, professional associations and all other relevant stakeholders involved or interested in the topic
From 15.12.2011 to 29.02.2012
This Green Paper
(,
100KB) proposes to launch a
number of new policy initiatives and a public debate in Europe
with all interested parties for accelerating the wide deployment
of innovative high-quality lighting solutions, which are based
on light emitting diode (LED) and organic LED technologies and
commonly referred to as 'Solid State Lighting' (SSL). The Green
Paper addresses both the demand and supply side.
It first addresses policies targeting European users (professional users and consumers) for overcoming existing challenges for wider market uptake. It then proposes policies addressing the European lighting industry with the aim to foster its leading position and competitiveness thus contributing to the creation of growth and jobs in Europe.
The Commission is seeking the views of all interested individuals and organisations on the relevant issues involved by collecting replies on specific questions set out in the Green Paper.
We welcome contributions from all interested stakeholders.
